Sašo Sedlaček (1974) is a Ljubljana-based artist whose primary interest seems to be things that people overlook and the ways in which they can be made useful once again. His work is generally defined by theories of disposal and the use and reuse of cheap technologies and waste materials. His practical and humorous works result from a subversive recycling of scientific, legal, or technological facts and employing DIY (do-it-yourself) and collaborative methods. Sedlaček has participated in numerous solo and group shows, including at the Secession in Vienna, the Sixth Taipei Biennial, the Museum of Modern Art in Ljubljana, the Ludwig Museum in Budapest, the October Saloon in Belgrade, Ars Electronica in Linz, Transmediale 2014 in Berlin and the Museumsquartier (MUMOK, Freiraum) in Vienna.
Among the several awards he has received for his work are the OHO Group Award (Slovenian winner of YVAA award in 2006), the SPAPORT award from the Museum of Contemporary Art in Banja Luka (2008), a Special Mention from the VIDA 11.0 awards in Madrid (2009), Trend Award- Slovenian award for visual creativity (2013) and 26. Alexandria Biennale award (2014). He has been an artist-in-residence at the ISCP in New York, IAMAS in Japan, artist residency in London and Berlin given by Slovenian Ministry of Culture, The Israeli Center For Digital Art in Holon.
